BB-301: Dose escalation phase 1b cohort 1

"BB-301 is composed of an AAV9 capsid, AAV9PL, which delivers the gene of interest, comprised of a recombinant genome encoding a single RNA transcript that produces a codon-optimized, wildtype PABPN1 protein as well as 2 short hairpin (sh)RNAs directed against the disease-causing mutant PABPN1 gene.~Subjects in cohort 1 in the dose escalation phase of the study will receive a fixed number of intramuscular (IM) injections of BB-301 into the respective pharyngeal constrictor muscles on the day of dosing, with a total dose of 1.2e13 vg/subject."

GENETIC

BB-301: Dose escalation phase 1b cohort 2

"BB-301 is composed of an AAV9 capsid, AAV9PL, which delivers the gene of interest, comprised of a recombinant genome encoding a single RNA transcript that produces a codon-optimized, wildtype PABPN1 protein as well as 2 shRNAs directed against the disease-causing mutant PABPN1 gene.~Subjects in cohort 2 in the dose escalation phase of the study will receive a fixed number of IM injections of BB-301 into the respective pharyngeal constrictor muscles on the day of dosing, with a total dose of 3.6e13 vg/subject."

GENETIC

BB-301: Dose escalation phase 1b cohort 3

"BB-301 is composed of an AAV9 capsid, AAV9PL, which delivers the gene of interest, comprised of a recombinant genome encoding a single RNA transcript that produces a codon-optimized, wildtype PABPN1 protein as well as 2 shRNAs directed against the disease-causing mutant PABPN1 gene.~Subjects in cohort 3 in the dose escalation phase of the study will receive a fixed number of IM injections of BB-301 into the respective pharyngeal constrictor muscles on the day of dosing, with a total dose of 5.4e13 vg/subject."

GENETIC

BB-301: Dose expansion phase 2a

Subjects in the dose expansion phase of the study will receive a fixed number of IM injections of BB-301 into the respective pharyngeal constrictor muscles on the day of dosing, at the maximum tolerated dose (MTD)/recommended phase 2 dose (RP2D).
